Hot and cold: A Britain of two halves as heavy snowfall covers Scotland in white - while England still enjoys unseasonal warmth

Hot and cold: A Britain of two halves as heavy snowfall covers Scotland in white - while England still enjoys unseasonal warmth

It is very much a 'Tale of Two Britains' today, as Scotland and England bask and shiver respectively in very different weather.

While England continues to enjoy warm spring conditions, Scotland is facing sub-zero temperatures and heavy snowfall.

England should not feel too smug - the icy weather is likely to forge south, bringing an end to the burst of unseasonal warmth that has lit up the country over the last week.

But this will not be enough to alleviate the much-publicised drought in England. A hose-pipe ban is still set to be introduced on Thursday.

After a week of record highs north of the border, where temperatures were hotter than Athens, Bermuda, Cairo, Lisbon and Rome, Scotland has been plunged back to winter.

The Met Office has issued an amber severe weather warning for snow in four areas of central and northern Scotland, advising the public to be prepared for transport disruption with ice developing on untreated roads.
